  • Bradykinin is an autocoid related to acute and chronic pain and inflammation. The non-peptide bradykinin antagonists are of interest as novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics and some active compounds such as FR 173657, LF 16-0687, and bradyzide were reported very recently. In our search for the new bradykinin antagonists, we designed to synthesize the analogues of FR173657 with two to three amide bonds and lipophilic ring system in each molecule. (omitted)

  • Bradykinin is an autocoid related to acute and chronic pain and inflammation. The non-peptide bradykinin antagonists are of interest as novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics. Some active compounds such as FR 173657, LF 160687, and bradyzide were reported very recently. In our search for the new bradykinin antagonists, we designed and synthesized the iminodiacetic acid derivatives having two or three amide bonds and lipophilic ring system in each molecule. Liquid phase combinatorial synthesis using the iminodiacetic acid template gave diverse individual compounds rapidly and efficiently on a 10-50 mg scale. (omitted)

  • Chitosan is widely used in cosmetics and medical fields. Special emphasis has been put on the chemical modification of chitosan to explore its full potential. We have described the synthesis and biological activity of novel peptide amino acid derivatives. The polyamino acid derivatives were synthesized by introducing alkylamine functional group on chitosan at C-6. The poor aqueous solubility of chitosan derivatives hinder both pharmacological studies and pharmaceutical development. To make amino acid coupled chitosan derivatives with improved biological effect and solubility, some attempts have been taken to consist of amino peptide group like aspartic acid and phenylalanine-aspartic acid derivatives onto chitosan C-6. The resultingly substituted chitosan was characterized by solubility in various solvents. We measured chitosan derivatives with $^1H$-NMR and $^{13}C$-NMR. Also, We were investigated on the physical properties and biological activities of these products.

  • Peptide deformylase (PDF) is essential and unique to bacteria for cytoplasmic protein synthesis, but not required in eukaryotes, thus making it an attractive target for the discovery of novel antibacterial drugs. Protein synthesis in eubacteria, under normal conditions, is initiated by formyl-methionyl-tRNA. PDF removes the formyl-group of N- formylmethionine of newly synthesized polypeptides to produce a mature protein. In this study, a pdf gene from Staphylococcus aureus 6538p was cloned in pET-14b vector and transformed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). (omitted)

  • In the present work, we studied a method for the synthesis of uniform gold-peptide hierarchical superstructures using tyrosine rich peptide, Tyr-Tyr-Leu-Tyr-Tyr (YYLYY). Peptide nanoparticles self-assembled by dityrosine bonds were synthesized through the photo-crosslinking reaction of the peptide, and gold-peptide hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized using biomineralization properties of tyrosine in a green synthetic manner. The synthesized gold-peptide hybrid nanoparticles were then characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, UV-vis spectroscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Furthermore, the catalytic activity of gold-peptide hybrid nanoparticles was confirmed by the reduction reaction of methylene blue where the catalytic reaction rate constant was 13.4 × 10-3 s-1.
